Slim fitting chinos / pants

bsyde82 · Mar 4, 2009

I'm looking for an alternative to these:

I really want that lighter navy color, in a slim-fitting chino of course

They're (J Crew Urban Slim Fit, all colors) on sale for $49.50 now..

To give you an idea of how they fit, here are measurements (BIG style)
for a pair tagged 29x32:

Waist: 30"
Front Rise: 10.5"
Back Rise: 15"
Upper Thigh: 11.5"
Knee: 8"
Leg Opening: 7.4"
Inseam: 32"

I wish I could see some fit pics of the Urban Slims as well. I'd like to see how they fit day-to-day.

I might pick up a couple pair at $50, though.

I've seen the broken-in and lightweight classic-fit on sale a few times now, usually in less than desirable colors and sizes (I have one in khaki and one in espresso, but it's usually just white and red). I don't think the essential classic-fit gets to $20.

Yea they go on sale every so often, they must either sell quick or they don't have allot of sizes left in stock when I click on the sale items there usually gone. Also anyone else think the new design (hook & bar) doesn't look as good as the older style? Maybe I'm odd but I've always preferred the look of a button closure on my casual wear.

Anybody tried the new Levis 514 twills?

They don't look very slim. They don't have the 511 twills anymore, right? Also, fwiw, the J.Crew broken-in chinos that I ordered ended up being the wrong style, wrong color, wrong size, so if anyone wants to make an offer on brand new (never-worn, still in packaging) J.Crew classic-fit essential chinos in 33/32, message me.

I've read about half this thread... but haven't seen what I"m looking for so far. I need a pair of slim fitting pants for the summer, fairly low rise, 6.5" leg opening, maybe 6.75, does anybody even make this?

urban outfitters has bdg "skinny chinos" on sale for 29 in stores.

Reviving an older thread as my search has continued. I did pick up a pair of the Gap Original Khaki's today because they fit surprisingly slim on my frame in a size 29. The thigh measures about 11.25-11.5", knee approximately 8.25"-8.5", with an 8" leg opening. Not too narrow of a leg opening, but that's as big as I prefer nowadays on my chino's especially for casual workwear. Fit pics when I get some time.

I have the W+H chinos from SS09 and they come close to this, but not quite. The 30" waist model measures 7.0" at the leg opening and has a low rise. Not sure if smaller waist sizes have smaller leg openings, but I'd imagine so. The ones I have feel about 1/2 size larger than marked so sizing down may be an option on these if you have a really slim build.

apc khakis fit well this season. They're really slim all the way through but not quite as much as a77 costellos. The material is lightweight and just ok feeling though. The quality on my a77s seem about the same if not slightly higher, which is weird
